Wix launches Base Code for non-engineers to edit GitHub code via prompts

Wix’s Base44 launched Base Code to all its users as a separate product that connects GitHub repos to cloud workspaces where teams edit an existing codebase through plain-language requests. Wix acquired Base44 for $80 million in 2025, and now offers Base Code as a standalone product.

Product managers, designers, QA, and operations staff can type changes into chat, see a live preview, and submit them as pull requests that engineers still review. Workspace owners can limit which GitHub organizations a project may be imported from, and all secrets are stored encrypted. While Base44’s original app builder creates new apps from prompts, Base Code modifies existing production software.
